"Democrat Jon Ossoff has declined to take a series of Sixth District debates with Republican Karen Handel to the national stage, sending word that he will not participate in a June 13 Atlanta Press Club event that CNN had proposed to broadcast." In a statement his campaign said, "We’re committed to participating in debates moderated by members of the metro Atlanta press corps, so unfortunately Jon will not be attending the proposed debate on June 13th. Sorry we couldn’t come to an agreement."

He is a manufactured image based on the most reckless ridiculous lying PR campaign ever created.
He is basically running as a moderate Republican in his ads despite the fact he got $10 million for the most extremist Left wing organizations out there. He knows full well he cannot stand up to any serious scrutiny by the voters.
What makes me mad is it starting to look like the GOP just wrote this seat off. He is running back to back ads down here unanswered.
Gotta maintain the illusions at all costs.
This is why he doesn't want a nationally broadcast debate. His support comes from the left wing fringe desperate for a win they can point to but, he is pretending to be a, "blue dog" for the local audience. Most democrats pretend to be more conservative during elections.
Because he would be worse in a debate like Tim Kaine was???
Tim Kaine is another pajama boy. Of course, he was just doing what Hillary and Terry McAuliffe told him to.
Because Ossoff is wasting $10 million dollars and Karen Handel doesn't have $10 million dollars you think the GOP is writing this seat off? High voter turnout tells me Republicans are running to the polls with bells on. Congressmen Newt Gingrich, Tim Price and then Jon Ossoff? I think not.
Same way Obama ran in 2008. Go back and look at his speeches and he sounds like a moderate RINO.
So is this pajama boy, what’s your point???
What are the polls showing?
Effectively tied.
Maybe he is afraid to answer the question, “So, who are you voting for in this race?” Being that he can’t vote in the district he is running in, the answer would be pure gold.
Dead heat if polls can be believed (Not!)
Maybe CNN refused to give him the questions before the debate and doesn’t like it.
